Dug around a bit more and found enough to go forward.  After the 
aptitude update to the 2.6 kernel I edited lilo.conf and made the change 
above.  All the links were done by aptitude.  I knew from updating some 
other machines (with grub installed instead of lilo) that I needed to 
add psmouse and mousedev to /etc/modules.  Ran lilo and the machine 
rebooted into 2.6 without problem.
